Gratitude

I am thankful for feeling happy
For happy just because
Because just because happy is the best
I am thankful for this day
For ease
For errands to run
For friends
I am thankful for hugs and conversation
For Laura
For love
I am thankful for long lines at the Department of Motor Vehicles
For space to people watch
For the clerk with the bright purple locks
Because bright purple locks is a hairstyle too
For the old man who trusted me to help him
I am thankful for not knowing how any of this is going to work out
Any of this
This
I am thankful for knowing that it will
Somehow
